This retest made one thing very clear: not every Hurricane run is automatically better, and not every higher-rarity key is worth saving. The rooms that matter most are the ones with strong value, fast looting, and manageable risk. A few are incredible. A few are overrated. And a couple are just bait.

How the Keys Were Ranked

We judged each room by four things:

• Total profit
• Key rarity
• Contest/risk level
• Loot efficiency

That matters because a blue key should clearly outperform a green key, and an epic key should feel premium. If it doesn't, it drops.

Full Tier List

Best Key Rooms

These are the keys we'd actively keep and prioritize.

Dam Control Tower

• Nearly 200,000 total profit
• Best overall key room in the test
• Hurricane is clearly the best mode

This is the current gold standard. If you have this key, try to save it for Hurricane.

Buried City Town Hall

• Around 165,954  Coins
• High loot volume, high ceiling
• Still one of the best epic keys in the game

Stella Montis Medical Storage

• A huge overperformer for a green key
• Compact, efficient, and consistently rewarding
• One of the best value keys overall

Dam Staff Room

• Almost 110,000  Coins
• Excellent for a green key
• Small room, fast loot, strong reward

Stella Montis Archives

• Nearly 150,000  Coins
• Better than its reputation
• Strong loot density and great upside

Strong A-Tier Keys

Dam Surveillance

• About 89,054  Coins
• Very strong for a green key
• Much better in Hurricane

Dam Controlled Access Zone

• 100,000+  Coins
• Strong blue key
• Efficient room with good value

Residential Master

• Best used at Grandioso Apartments
• Flexible key, but that location is the best
• Strong green key overall

JKV Employee

• Around 92,000  Coins
• Compact and easy to loot
• Quietly one of the better green keys

Spaceport Warehouse

• About 104,000  Coins
• Day and Hurricane were both good
• Very solid everyday key

North Trench Tower

• About 116,000  Coins
• North is better than South
• Rooftop weapon case gives it real value

Mid-Tier Keys

These are still usable, but they come with trade-offs.

Testing Annex

• About 91,077  Coins
• Good room, but only slightly better than top green keys
• That makes it underwhelming for a blue key

Buried City Hospital

• Much better in Hurricane
• Day raid results were weak
• Fine situationally, not a priority

Blue Gate Village

• Decent green key
• Small and easy to loot
• Just not especially explosive

Blue Gate Cellar / Communication Tower

• Both are solid blue keys
• Neither does enough to push into A tier

Assembly Admin

• Value is okay
• Risk and awkward angles drag it down

Security Checkpoint

• Feels weaker than before
• Still usable, but no longer special

Keys to Avoid

Spaceport Ground Control Tower

• About 82,830  Coins
• Not awful, just too average for a blue key

Spaceport Container Storage

• About 61,000  Coins
• Four entrances, awkward to hold, weak returns
• One of the easiest keys to regret using

Blue Gate Confiscation Room

• Worst key room in the test
• Epic rarity, red zone, contested area
• Reward does not match the risk at all

Day vs Hurricane

This is where a lot of players overgeneralize.

Hurricane clearly helped:

• Dam Control Tower
• Dam Surveillance
• Buried City Hospital

Day was still perfectly fine for:

• Residential Master
• Spaceport Warehouse
• Several compact green-key rooms

Simple rule:

• Epic keys / high-ceiling rooms → prefer Hurricane
• Small, efficient green rooms → Day is usually fine
• Risky rooms with low scaling → don't force Hurricane

Best Keys by Playstyle

If you are low on keys

Prioritize:

1. Dam Staff Room

2. Stella Montis Medical Storage

3. Dam Surveillance

4. JKV Employee

5. Spaceport Warehouse

If you want the highest upside

Prioritize:

1. Dam Control Tower

2. Buried City Town Hall

3. Stella Montis Archives

4. Controlled Access Zone

If you mostly play solo

Stick to compact rooms:

• Dam Surveillance
• Dam Staff Room
• JKV Employee
• Warehouse
• Medical Storage

Small rooms are simply easier to control, loot, and leave.

FAQ

What is the best key room right now?

Dam Control Tower is the best overall key room from this test.

What is the best green key?

Top green keys were:

• Stella Montis Medical Storage
• Dam Staff Room
• Stella Montis Archives
• Dam Surveillance

Is Hurricane always better?

No. Some rooms scale very well in Hurricane, but others were surprisingly close to Day.

What is the worst key room?

Blue Gate Confiscation Room was the worst room relative to its rarity and risk.

Final Takeaway

The main lesson here is simple: rarity does not guarantee value.

The best key rooms tend to share three things:

• fast loot
• stable Coins
• manageable risk

That's why rooms like Dam Control Tower, Town Hall, and Medical Storage rise to the top, while rooms like Container Storage and Confiscation Room fall apart in practice.

The real question is not which key looks expensive. It's which key is actually worth spending in a live raid.
